INTERNET BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, 3 GREEN REASONS TO WORK FROM HOME
According to the United States Department of Labor the unemployment rate sits at about 10%. Reports I have read indicate that the real rate is even higher if you include those whose unemployment benefits have run out and others who have given up looking for now and are going to wait out the economy and start looking for employment when the prospects look brighter. Some estimates put the unemployment rate closer to 15%
That means approximately 10-15 million people are searching for work. If you’re reading this you may be one of those people. With many of us concerned about the environment and our carbon footprint working from home makes a lot of sense. It makes good sense for 3 green reasons. If you are one of the 10% this may interest you. Perhaps you’re ready for a new challenge in life.
GREEN REASON 1. It reduces your overall work related costs by as much as tens of thousands of dollars per year. Click here to read my article on the real cost of commuting to work and other work related costs, you may be surprised at just how much you spend per year.
GREEN REASON 2. The financial opportunities of working from home are massive. Believe it when you read that internet business opportunities in the form of online marketing are just starting to emerge, even though there are already thousands of online produced millionaires. In a few years that number will increase exponentially. About 1.7 billion people worldwide are connected to the internet; this represents only 23% saturation.
GREEN REASON 3. If you are a friend to the environment this is where working from home really shines. Working from home reduces your automobile related carbon emissions significantly. Depending on your situation you may not need a car anymore, saving on interest, insurance, parking, tolls, depreciation and more.
There are several factors that go into a decision to quit the work-a-day rat race and set up shop from home. The point of this article is that in addition to firing your boss, spending more time with your family, experiencing the satisfaction of self employment, the potential to make a six figure income, implementation of your own unique business idea, establishing a work at home career, setting up an entrepreneurial franchise with residual income there is also the following opportunity.
There is the opportunity for you to help save the planet, to work green. Think about it. You can hold down pollution and waste by making your own decisions about disposable items, pencils, paper products and more.
In addition, home working could also allow businesses to operate from smaller premises, saving energy and water consumption. Working from home can significantly reduce carbon emissions.
Let’s say working from home cuts out a half-hour commute in the car, day to day that can have a huge impact. Avoiding air travel through teleconferencing can also have a huge impact. Skype accounts and Webinars make meetings and seminars a reality now.
So, if you are one of the 10-15 million searching for employment seriously consider a home based business. The feeling of freedom, wealth and exhilaration are indescribable.
